VCDEasy allows you to play/watch your videos (from DV camcorder, DivX, DVD,...), your pictures (from digital camera, scanner,...) and your audio files (music, audio comments,...) directly on most of the home DVD players, without having to buy a DVD Writer and DVD discs. How ? VCDEasy allows you to build easily VideoCDs (VCD/SVCD)! A VCD ("Video Compact Disc") is a CD (CD-R or CD-RW, so cheap) that can contain up to 80 minutes video, up to 1980 pictures, up to 6 hours of audio (CD sound quality), or a mix of them. On a VCD, it is also possible to have menus and chapters, similiar to DVDs. You can also have simple photo album/slide shows. All you need to do is to provide VCDEasy with MPEG files compliant with the VideoCD specifications (A MPEG pictures encoder is already included into VCDEasy, a MPEG audio only files encoder will be included into VCDEasy soon, and use for example the excellent TMPGEnc encode to MPEG your videos). 'Novice' users can simply select (VideoCD ready) MPEG files and click the 'go' button, while 'advanced' users can configure/use almost all aspects of the VideoCD specifications (PlayBack Control based interactivity, Chapters, Menus support, CD-i support...). The same way most of the home DVD player and computers can play Audio CDs, a VCD can be played on almost all standalone DVD players and of course on all computers with a DVD-ROM or CD-ROM drive with the help of a software player. |
